I've been in the business of building fine acoustic guitars and repairing all manner of stringed instruments for 25 years now. I spent many years working with Collings Guitars. I know what guitars ought to be. I believe I build some of the finest steel string acoustic guitars in the world. That’s the main reason I’m determined to stay with the work I love. Besides that, I’m way too stubborn to do anything else.

I’ve resisted changing the pricing on my guitars for a number of reasons, but in order to keep producing, I simply have to increase my retail prices. I’ve incorporated a number of upgrades including Waverly tuners and higher-grade Cedar Creek cases as standard equipment, and the pricing still represents a bargain in the handmade guitar world. I’ve also added Style AV based on vintage production guitars with simpler appointments. It allows me to offer a great sounding, fine looking handmade instrument at a very reasonable price.
